Blogging has become an important tool in politics as it allows candidates to get their message across to supporters without the filter of the mainstream media or the cost of advertising.

It also enables ordinary citizens to participate in politics, be it supporting a candidate or organizing around an issue.

Which is why I’m looking for supporters who are interested in blogging for me. Whether its about issues in the 2nd Congressional District, local republican candidates or just a diary on what I’m up to, I’m requesting your help.

There are a number of free blog hosting websites available including Blogger and Word Press.

If you are computer savvy enough to set one up on your own, please create one and contact me with the blog name and address so that I can add it to my blog roll.

For those of you who are interested but need some help setting one up please contact my campaign at (516) 459-5007
